A true four-bedroom detached bungalow set on a large plot with gardens to three sides and generous parking in central Ripponden. The bungalow is single-storey, wheelchair-accessible and sits close to local amenities, schools and bus routes with good M62 links to Leeds and Manchester. Planning permission is already granted for a single-storey wrap-around extension, offering clear scope to increase living space and value.
The accommodation includes a spacious lounge/diner, kitchen, utility room and principal bedroom with an en suite; the listing also refers to a family wet room. Prospective buyers should note the advertised bathrooms count is inconsistent in the paperwork, so a survey or verification is recommended. The property dates from the 1980s, has double glazing (installed before 2002) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Strengths are the size of the plot, flexible single-storey layout and existing planning permission — excellent for downsizers seeking level living or buyers wanting to create a larger family home or rental asset. Practical considerations include medium flood risk, above-average council tax, average broadband speeds and the need to assess renovation or modernisation work as required by personal standards.
This bungalow suits someone seeking sensible single-floor living with development upside in a comfortable, affluent small-town setting. Bring a checklist and surveyor to confirm service condition, exact bathroom provision and any maintenance or upgrade costs before committing.
